Also, aren't we just a few short days away from the Minear thread? We need a name, and also need to know if we can use "Casting Spoilers" to talk about Wonder Falls.
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

A-yup.
I propose "Tim Minear is a Fluffy Bunny: Wonder Falls 1"

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I addressed that issue. The FAQ entries were not subject to the same kind of scrutiny and debate as consensus decisions, and should not be considered grandfathered. They reflect board culture, they don't codify it.
OTOH, this particular piece of the FAQ is old as methusalah. Apart from it's FAQ statu: Is a policy that has existed from the beginning grandfathterable?

Jon, I'm not contesting your statement above in any way.
But I think it's kind of funny that it was you who summarized the policy as well when we preparing to move over here. (I linked to the post in Lightbulb, but it's at WX and can't be reached. Or couldn't last time I tried.) Just as it was Hec who twice brought up the idea that we needed to address summer spoilers. Continuity yay!
(And in the WX post at least, you were indeed summarizing common practice and related discussion, not making up the policy on your own.)

You're missing the message, that this point of spoiler policy, namely, summertime casting news about regular cast members, wasn't addressed in the policy. It's a no-go.

I think that the spoiler line has been moving, living thing.

You're missing the point that the policy was the standard that was deviated from. Sometimes those deviations were objected to, sometimes they weren't.

Yes! Although frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if the count changed.

We could update it as it happened, and it would be really, really funny.
